4. Listen to the beat of the drum, or rattles, or sticks, etc. The beat
is as if your heart were racing. Breath deeply, relax, tune your ears and
breathing to the beat.

5. Look inward for your entry hole down into the earth. Don't criticize
the image that comes, accept it. (I have used caves, holes in the ground,
tree roots, etc).

6. Fall or drift down the hole, or run down the tunnel or tree root etc.
Don't worry about it. Be patient; you may not move rapidly in the tunnel;
you may get stuck. It really doesn't matter.

7. Watch for the unexpected. Breath deeply; be alert. Decide where in
the tunnel you want to go and intend it. It will happen.

8. When you see an opening into another land, enjoy whatever you see; explore,
anticipate nothing, expect to be surprised.

9. Meet any animal and see if it presents itself to you four times. Or
ask your Power animal to guide you. Be timid and calm, as you would with
a real wild animal; it will not attack you but you must win it over.

10.Listen for your return signal, such as four drum rolls.

11.Be sure to retrace your steps back to and up through the tunnel. Be
relaxed and do not hurry, but be deliberate on your return path. Do not
bring back objects or animals on the first journey.

12.Become conscious of the room or space around you in the real world.
Try to review what you have just seen and learned, but do it in a relaxed
way.

13.Do not open your eyes suddenly; relax and enjoy the calm state you are
now in. You are still between worlds; this will last several minutes, much
like waking up.

14.Keep a journal of your journeys. Write quickly as the ideas will race
ahead of you.

15.Thank your power animal for guiding your journey and comong back with you.
The power animals guard you whether you ask for it or not.
